Suits like these should be tossed out—along with the lawyer.
Maybe one day they will find a way to find if the child will be gay and kill it.
It’s a strange world we live in where right and wrong becomes so confused by the liberals.
Stinking plaintiff lawyers are a plague on this nation.
Why don’t they just kill it now? There isn’t any difference from that and an “abortion”.
Nah, THAT the democrats will absolutely make illegal if it comes true.
craven and depraved
No one forced them to keep it.
What the parents would have done or did not do is immaterial. The doctor was under a professional and moral obligation to tell them everything about the health of their baby. There is no no greater abomination than abortion but this doctor did not practice up to community standards.
That poor child. They are not trustworthy parents - mentally unstable to want to kill their child.

I worked with an anesthesiologist that sued for the same reason. I think that one got tossed.
Right - I believe that is called “post-birth” abortion, or something like that.
Hey - send me your baby if you don’t want it. I would love to have this sweet little angel...I can’t keep waiting forever to be a Grandma!

Posts 10 & 11 have the stink of what trial lawyers say to too gullible juries to extract million$ out of the health money that could go better for treatment instead of yachts & Boca Rattan mansions for trial lawyers. No medical or surgical procedure has a 100% success rate and the forms and explanations to patients already say that. The concept that these odious parents can sue because their baby disappoints them makes most of us sick.
‘The parents of a four-year-old Oregon girl with Down syndrome are suing Legacy Health in Portland because they say doctors misdiagnosed their daughter as not having the condition during a prenatal screening.’
The doctor DID not lie to the parents or withhold information. The test DID not show that the child had Down Syndrome. Read further in the article about genetic testing.

They didn't have to keep the child. Adoption is always an option. While I agree with your sentiments completely, even from a completely amoral position on the issue, the fact that they could have put the child up for adoption should preclude them from getting ANY money out of it. They CHOSE to keep that child, nobody forced them. Now they've just made her a cash cow, which further disqualifies them from being considered good parents.
